Useful Signals

Component	Pin #	Name	Comment
CN1600	7	UART_TX	(TX from the board's perspective, runs at 460800 bps)
CN1600	9	UART_RX
CN1300	10	I2C_SCL	I2C line is shared by devices on the motherboard, but also goes to the camera head
CN1300	11	I2C_SDA
IC1600	4	Reset of the main CPU	Short this to ground to cause a main CPU reboot. (this is an open drain output of the voltage detector, so it's okay to short to ground)
CN2001/CN1000*	2	Power Button	Short this to ground to prompt the board to boot even when the flex cable to the interface board is not connected
